TELL:

Since my previous Caustic track was done with no drums it's obvious that the next one would be only drums. My inspiration here was Edgard Varese's Composition Ionization.

If you are a fan of Frank Zappa you may know of him but he is also considered the father of electronic music.

Varese was the first to use the phrase "organized sound' which is what so much of sample based music is today. He envisioned a machine that a composer could use to create a complete  & finished piece of music (like that phone you've got there combined with Caustic.)

This is more of a compact homage to Edgard Varese and I wanted to thank both Pan65 and ImpulseGame for their encouragement during this project. I will admit that I was listening to a lot of Square Pusher this last month and there was some unintentional cross pollination. Hopefully no one will mind.
